About the archive
Photographs that mean more than their file size
Family Album is being built for scanned prints, half-remembered dates, handwritten captions and stories passed between relatives. It is a private photographic archive rather than a public social network.
The idea began with a familiar problem: a large physical collection spanning several generations, full of irreplaceable photographs and fragile context. A scan can preserve the image. A thoughtful archive can also preserve who is pictured, where they were, when it was taken—even if the honest answer is only “probably 1948”—and what the family remembers about that moment.
Photos are the artefacts. People, places, dates and memories are the history.
Built around family ownership
The archive stores personal information because that is what makes it genuinely useful. It does not claim otherwise. Its promise is more precise: family material is used to provide the archive, not to build advertising profiles, train AI models, resell imagery or invent unrelated secondary uses.
BackTwoFront Technologies Ltd is developing the service in the United Kingdom. “Family Album” is a working product name and may change without changing the underlying privacy principles.
